Iowa County democrat. [volume] (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1877-1938, 1887-07-15

From first to last the attemps
of the republican party leaders to
thwart and control President Cleveland
IN regard to appointments to positions
in the civil service have proved utter
and ridiculous failures. The attemp
of Senator EdmundS and others to
marshal their party forces in the senate
cases where removals had been made
broke down early in the fight; and this
mode of warfare was entirely aban-
doned at the last session OF Congress.
l4atterly the struggle for the possession
of the offices by holding over republi-
cans has been carried on only in a
desultory and irregular way. The
strongest fight in the last ditch was
on behalf of John n Oliver. a Justice
of the peace in the District of Column
bia. who claimed that he could only
be removed by an order of the supreme
court of the district. This claim was
taken up by the organs throughout the
country and it was confidently claimed
by them that on an appeal Of the case
To the court aforesaid the president
would get worsted. The weakness of
the foundation for this claim is shown
by the following telegram:
WASHINGTON, July 1.-THE sup
RENE court of the District of Columbia,
sitting general term, to-day sustained
the demurrer of the government and
awarded Judgment of custer in the
ease of the United States against John
\. Oliver, a justice of the peace, who
resisted the right of the president to
remove him, and claimed that he could
he displaced from his office only by
the District supreme court. The court
in an opinion delivered by Chief Justic
Bingham, holds that the power To re
move justices of the peace resided in
the president alone down to the inor-
ganic act of the court passed in March
1868, and that this act did not take
away the presidents power of removal,
but merely conferred on the court con-
current power of removal with the
president.
The yindictiye and watchful op-
ponents of the president may find
him off his guard once in a great
while. but in all contests where he has
considered his ground he invariably
comes out ahead. In fact he has
worsted his opponents so often as to
make any exception to the general rule
plaringly conspicuous.

is now in hand of committees, for

Government boats are now employed
along the line of Grant county i'm

The contractor, Sidney J. TruaX is re-
ported as saying that $4,000 would be
expended in damming Jacco slouth
just below Cassville, and $4,000 in
damming the Bunker chute below and
opposite Buena Vista. This would
throw all the Mississippi into one chan
over the distance named and the
current would soon cut a neverfailing
channel that far.
The Galena Press.
The earning of the Galena Post
Office, for the Quarter just closed June
Both averaged more than $500 per
day during the quarter, over that of the
same quarter in any year since the office
ceased to be second class. The Register
business too, has largely increased
since the establishment of the Inner
Registered Pouch to Chicago establish
ed for first time in the history of the
Office in Dec. last,) and is rapidly on
the increase as the people become
acquainted with its safety and relia-
bility in transmission of money and
valuabIes at a very small cost. On the
first Of January last, the Call Boxes
We're reduced to a uniform rental of 25
cents per-quarter, it being a reduction
of One-half. The increased number of
boxes taken have kept up the revenues
from that source besides greatly aiding
the work of the office and facilitating
the correct and safe delivery of mail
matter. The total earnings Of the
Office fall but Il few dollars short of
placing it again in the list of offices of
the second class.

At the annual school meeting Tues
day evening, a goodly number of the yo-
tiers of both sexes were in attendance.
Although word had gone forth that a
storm of Indignation would be visited
upon the board when the matter of
school building was brought before the
meeting; this proved as unreliable
as were most of our dry weather pre-
dictions and instead of censure the
school board were fully sustained in
their action pertaining to the school
ing now being erected and the former
incumbent, u. T. Stevens elected clerk
with scarce a dissenting vote.

along in WATERFOWL, in the north part
of Grant county, when he came across
several men who We're driving posts for
barb wire fence. y party of men he
first encountered would set the posts on
top of the ground and drive it in by
main strength and with great exertion.
Some distance on he encountered an
aged German doing the same work
alone. The German would drive a
crowbar deep into the ground and fill
the hole with water. After the water
had soaked away he drove the posts in
with apparent ease, and set two posts
to the first party's one.
